My “sit spot” was located in my backyard, and I sat down on the bench and listened to nature while petting my oldest dog, [...]]]></description>

In, Nature Studies, Marisa had asked us to bring in something to share with the class, and I told everyone about my snorkeling trip where I swam with sharks. Other topics that were shared were, &#8220;Why Turkey Vultures have no head [...]]]></description>

The first challenge was that I had no idea what Drue actually learned after 7 years of public education. Second, I had no idea how she learns. And finally, [...]]]></description>

Tuesday dawned clear with perfect weather and Sunny took full advantage on her morning stroll around the front yard. Yes, that&#8217;s right. Our sweet girl has stopped rushing out, pottying and heading straight back in. She&#8217;s actually taking her time, smelling [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I'm not entirely sure how to sum up the last seven days of my life.   It feels a bit like teleporting.   At least, it feels like I'd imagine teleporting would feel.   You know, you start in one place and then you feel yourself get all split apart and then all of a sudden you're in an entirely NEW and different place but are all together.   The latest, newest and biggest news is that the Gloeges have gone all "I Can't Believe We're Not Vegan".    And by that I mean that we're not vegan in that we are not going to swear off meat forever.  I'm sorry but I need the real deal at Thanksgiving.   Tofurkey is not going to cut it.   And I'd rather give up anything else in the universe food-wise except sushi.   So there may be an occasional noshing of the raw fish.   But otherwise, we have given up meat, dairy, raw sugar and white, processed foods.  How and why we decided to do this is a whole 'nother post - and one that may be posted over where my new project (TBA soon!) lives, but suffice it to say that we, as a family, have never eaten or pooped so well.  And that's all I'm saying about that.  You can thank me later.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The other day, Jason whined that my posts on Lifeinflux are not as random and fun as my posts used to be when I was on Livejournal. He said that random and fun were the reasons people read as opposed to, you know, my insightful observations and words of profound wisdom.  Mom, stop chuckling.  I HEAR YOU.   I reminded Jason that sharing crap in my head frequently scares people off.    Jason's reply was "but I love peanut cookies" which means that in Jason's opinion scaring people off is fun and random... and that I was holding our mega jar of Peter Pan peanut butter in my hands.   A = B = C, right?   And yes, I meant to type HANDS.  We buy our peanut butter in volume at Costco.   Deal.     So, in honor of Jason's request, and because today I do NOT have time to bake him peanut cookies, I will share the random crap that popped into my head between the hours of 2 AM and right now.   Don't say I didn't warn you.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On December 31, 2008, I was sitting at Office of Personnel Management, sending out 45,312 emails to GoLearn users who were on the system but not paying for their usage.    I was also dealing with two new hires that I regretted hiring about a week after they were brought on board.  But they were my hires and I was stuck with them and all the good, bad and ugly of my soul-sucking job.  I hadn't yet lost all hope and accepted that the only good was the fat paycheck so with great naivete and hope, I updated my facebook status to read "2009 will be the best year yet".  The funny thing is that it was!]]></description>
